Abstract excerpt
AIM: We used a panel of 17 non-small-cell lung cancer cell lines to investigate whether the presence of polymorphisms in the RRM1, ERCC1, ABCB1 and MTHFR genes and alterations in their mRNA expression can affect the in vitro chemosensitivity to cisplatin and gemcitabine. MATERIALS & METHODS: Polymorphisms in these genes were evaluated by direct sequencing. mRNA expression levels were assessed by realtime PCR. In...
